AI Article Synopsis
- Three strains of anaerobic, variably pigmenting, Gram-negative bacilli were isolated from human oral mucosal tissue, revealing they form a homogeneous group within the genus Prevotella.
- Analysis using 16S rRNA gene sequencing and DNA-DNA hybridization identified these strains as a novel species, named Prevotella histicola sp. nov.
- This new species is saccharolytic, producing acetic and succinic acids during fermentation, with a DNA G+C content of 43 mol%, and the type strain is designated as T05-04T.
Article Abstract
Three strains of anaerobic, variably pigmenting, Gram-negative bacilli isolated from human oral mucosal tissue were subjected to a comprehensive range of phenotypic and genotypic tests and were found to comprise a homogeneous group. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and DNA-DNA hybridization revealed that the strains constituted a novel group within the genus Prevotella, being most closely related to Prevotella melaninogenica and Prevotella veroralis. A novel species, Prevotella histicola sp. nov., is proposed to accommodate these strains. Prevotella histicola is saccharolytic and produces acetic acid and succinic acid as major end products of fermentation and trace to minor amounts of isovaleric acid and lactic acid. The G+C content of the DNA of the type strain is 43 mol%. The type strain of Prevotella histicola is T05-04T (=DSM 19854T=CCUG 55407T).

A role of gut microbiome in pathogenesis as well as response to treatment is documented in rheumatoid arthritis. Using a novel duodenal derived Prevotella histicola strain MCI 001, we have shown that it suppresses disease progression in a collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), a model for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) using humanized mice expressing HLA-DQ8 gene in the absence of endogenous class II genes. Here we compared efficacy of P.

: A growing body of research supports the role of the microbial communities residing in the digestive system in the host's cognitive functioning. Most of these studies have been focused on the gut microbiome and its association with clinical phenotypes in middle-aged and older adults. There is an insufficiency of population-based research exploring the association of normative cognitive functioning with the microbiome particularly with the oral microbiota.

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), such as PCB52, are hazardous environmental contaminants present in indoor and outdoor environments. Oral PCB exposure affects the colon microbiome; however, it is unknown if inhalation of PCBs alters the intestinal microbiome. We hypothesize that sub-acute inhalation of PCB52 affects microbial communities depending on the location in the (GI) gastrointestinal tract and the local profiles of PCB52 and its metabolites present in the GI tract following mucociliary clearance and biliary or intestinal excretion.

The role of the oral microbiome in mental health has recently been appreciated within the proposed oral-brain axis. This study examined the structure and composition of the salivary microbiome in a large-scale population-based cohort of individuals reporting mental health symptoms (n = 306) compared to mentally healthy controls (n = 164) using 16S rRNA sequencing. Mental health symptoms were evaluated using validated questionnaires and included depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), with accompanying periodontal outcomes.

The microbiome, a complex micro-ecosystem, helps the host with various vital physiological processes. Alterations of the microbiome (dysbiosis) have been linked with several diseases, and generally, differential abundance testing between the healthy and patient groups is performed to identify important bacteria. However, providing a singular species of bacteria to an individual as treatment has not been as successful as fecal microbiota transplant therapy, where the entire microbiome of a healthy individual is transferred.
